BRUSH DRILLING AND TUFTING MACHINE.

To all whom it may concern:

Be it known that we, EDWARD F. Boon and KURT STEINBAGH, both citizens ofthe United States, the said E. F. BUCH residing at 1820 Clearfieldstreet, Philadelphia, county of Philadelphia, and State of Pennsylvania,and the said K. STEINBAOH residing at 2419 South Darien street,Philadelphia, county of Philadelphia, and State of Pennsylvania, haveinvented certain new and useful Imrovements in Brush Drilling andTufting achines, fully described and represented.

in the following specification and the accompan ing drawings, formingapart of the same.

0 present invention is an improvement upon patent to Rehfuss and Buch onJune 4, 1907 with No. 855,810 and title, Machine for Drilling andTufting Brushes.

The present invention'relates to a machine in which a head sustainedmovably above the brush-block is provided with a drilling device and atuft-driver both movable verticall in the head, and the head shiftedinterme iate to the drilling of the'holes, to bring the tuft-driver overthe holes. 7

The invention embraces means for'lifting the brush-block to the drillfor drilling each hole therein, and means operating intermittent to themovements of the drill to force the tuft-driver into the tuft-hole whilethe block is thus lifted. The block is then dopressed and shifted sothat when raised again it may present a new surface to the d rill.

The invention embraces various combinations for actuating thedrill-carrier and tuftdriver, and for supplying the wire staples andbristles for forl'ning the tufts, and other details of mechanism ashereinafter set forth and claimed.

The invention will be understood by reference to the annexed drawing, inwhich Figure 1 shows the front side of the machine; Fig. 32 is an endelevation of the same; Fig. 3 shows the rear sideof the machine with thebloclefeeding device removed to expose the block-holder; Fig. 4 is aplan of the machine with cam-shaft 70 and its bearings omitted; Fig. 5shows the front side of,

Fig. 13 shows the under side of the age-plate 100 upon thefoot of the brush lock holder; Fig. 14 shows the rear or inner side ofthe brush-block holder and the lifter 30; Fig. 15 is a perspective viewof a brushblock strip or section with a single row of tufts therein;Fig. 16 is a plan of the bristle magazine, tuft-guide and adjacentparts, and Fig. 17 is a section of the magazine, with its contents notin section.

The machine is especially designed to operate on a strip or section of abrush-block and is shown with a bed 1, a frame 2 having bearings 3carrying .upon the rear side a driving-shaft 4, and upon the front sidea horizontally reci procating bar 5 moving in guide 6 and carrying u )onits outerend the head 7 in which the drill 8 and tuft lriver 9 areoperated. The driving-shaft carries several cams and is connected bygears with a s ecial cam-shaft carried by the reci rocatmg bar 5, ashereinafter described. he driving-shaft carries a cam 10 engaging aroller 11 upon the bar 5 to reciprocate the same and shift the drill andthe tuft-driver alternately over the same spot upon the brush block [2.A drill-guide 13 and tuft-socket 14 are formed upon a bracket 15 securedat' center of the drill .and the center of the fufte driver, and thedrill-guide and the tuftsocket arethus brought alternately tothe samepoint. I

The machine is shown 0 erating upon abrush-block in the form 0 a narrowstrip adapted to receive a single, row ofv bristletufts, asshown in Fig.14, the strip being held in clamps 20 upon the foot 21 of the'brush-block-holder. One of the clamps is fastened to the foot 21 andthe other is clamped thereto by screws 19, and in practice the movementof the block-holder is re ulated to make the rows of tuft-holes of dierent lengths in different strips, so that when the strips are assembledtogether to make a complete bnush-block the outline of the holes mayconform to the usual oval form of a brush-block.

The holder is mounted to movevertically with a holder-slide 22 fitted,as shown in Fig. 4, to an'oscillating holder-guide 23 having a pivot24at its lower end, on which it may be oscillated and thus gradually tipthe brushblock so as to make the holes in the blgck incline outwardlyfromthe center hole; holder oscillates always in the same plane, so asto form only one row of holes in the block.

A stand 25 is supported upon the bed adjacent to the holder-guide 23,and the pivot 24 is fitted to the lower art of such stand and theholder-guide. T e stand has a slot 6 in its upiper part concentric withthe pivot, and a stu 27 is projected fromthe holderguide through theslot and held movably by a nut, thus steadyingrthc upper part of theguide inits oscillating movements. This construction inclines all theholes and tufts radiw ally to the and 15.'

A gage late 28 is shown upon the under pivot 24, as shown in Figs. 14

' side of t e block-holder foot 21 and is formed as shown in Fig. 13with a row of conical sockets 99 correspondin to the loca tion of theholes in the brush block, and a lifter 31 is fitted to a stationarysocket 30 below the block-holder and provided with a in 32 to enter thesockets 99 as shown in ig. 1, when the block-holder is intermittentlyoscillated.

The lifter is reciprocated, to lift the brush- 1 block to the drill andthe tufting-device, 'by

a cam 33 on the'driving-shaft shown in Fig. 2, 3 and 4 acting upon aroll 34 on. avetical rod 35 which is connected with a lever 36 below thebed, as shown in Fig. 3. A spring 37 is provided to normally raise therod 35 and depress the lifter 31 as shown in Fig. 3.

The brush-block holder is oscillated step by step to shift thebrush-block. beneath the drill by a feed-slide 338 connected. to theholder by a link 39. The feed-slide has teeth 40 spaced like the holesin the brushblock, and engaged by a reciprocating pawl 41 which isactuated by a lever 42 having a roll 43 fitted to the eriphei'y of a cam44 upon the driving sh rt.

As shown in Fig. 2, the movements of the block-holder are controlled bythe connec- The points upon the staple where cut.

tion of the link 39 with the feed-slide 38, and

the friction of the block-holder upon the stand 25 and the friction ofthe feed-slide 38 in its stand 45, suffice tohold the blockholder in itslast adjusted position until moved to a new position by the awl 4.

When thus r'noved, the block' h ,1 der is locked by the in 32 upon thelifter 31, which enters the soc 'ets 99 inthe'gp e-plate 28 upon theunder side of the bloc older foot.

The feed-slide and the levcr42 are mounted upon a stand 45 on the bed 1.

The means for drilling the brush block, for forming the tuft ofbristles, and setting it in the holes of the brush-block, -isconstructed as follows: A slide 46 is movable vertically in a channel inthe head 7' and car-' ing-bar 66 for the tuft-driver 9, and 'lates u onthe front sideof the head 'whic are 3 c early shown in Figs. 1 and 6,hold the slide movably in its channel and the driving-bar f An upwardmovably in the passage 67. movement of the slide retracts the drill 8into the guide 11.3 as in Fig.5, and a downward movement carries it intothe brush-'1 block 12 "when the latter is elevated as shown in Fig. 6.Over the tuft-socket 14 the anvil 51 is movable horizontally in theguide 18 upon the bracket15,.and a wirecutter is mounted adjacent to theanvil and the wire 53 fed to the/same over a seat 54. The seat is formedwith an angular groove, as shown in Fig. 6, and a transverse notch 55 toreceive the wire 53, and the cutter stem 52 is made of longitudinalangular form and fitted to such groove, sc that when forced forwarditcuts a short section out of the wire leaving beveled end s upon thewire ,at both ends of suchsection, thus .formli pg 1e wire 53fis fedthrough the notch 55 in the cutter-seat so as to project across theanvil as shownin Fig. 5, and when severed is bent close to the edge ofthe ma azine so that a.

tuft of bristles canbe pushe from the magazine directly to the tuftingsocket, with a 59 of the bristles 17 lying horizontal rloo l as shown inFigs. 5, 6 and 11'.

below. the anvi tfiched to the head 7, and is driven from The magazinehas a flat cover against which the bristles are pressed upwardly byaispring-plunger 61. This cover is shown in Figs. 16 and 17 formed oftwo plates with an opening or slot 64 between their adjacent edges forthe passage of the tuft-hook. These plates are in Fig. 7 showndovetailed into the opposite edges of the top of the magazine so thatthey may be withdrawn wl'len 1'1ecessary,to facilitate an inspection ofthe bristles. A ln'istle-feedbar 62 having a tuft-hook or separator 63upon the end is arranged to reciprocate across the top of the magazinethrough the slot 64, and narrow notches 65 are formed in the wall of themagazine next the slot, through which the side wings 59 of thebristle-tuft are drawn and in which they are held by friction when thebristle-feed-bar is retracted, asshown in Fig. 6.

The tuft-driver f) is carried by a driverbar 66 which reciprocates in avertical passage 67 in the slide 46, and pro'eets above the top of theslide to carry a roll 68. The slide itself projects above the top of thehead 7 to carry a roll 69. A cam-shaft 70 is mounted in a bearing 71over the top of the ram-guide 6 and in a bearing 72 ate shaft 4 bycog-wheels 73 and 74. The shaft 70 is provided with a cam 75 to act'upon the roll 68 and reciprocate the tuftdriver as required, and with acam 76 to en age the roll 69 and actuate the slide 46 an the drillspindle 47, as required. A collar 77 adg'acent to the bearing 72 causesthe cam-sha t to move longitudinally through the bearing 71 whenthe bar5 and head 7 are reciproeated the teeth of. gear 74 then sliding overthe teeth of the gear 73, as indicated in their respective positions inFigs. land 3. The shaft 76 is also pro vided with a cam 78 operatingupon a lever 75) to reciprocate the anvil as rmplired, and

with a cam 86 operating upon a ever 8] to reciprocate the wire cutterstem 52. These cams, like the cams 75 and 76, are located directly abovethe head 7 so that the levers extend directly from the cams to the partswhich are to be operated and form very direct connections from the camsthereto.

The wire feed illustrated in Fig. 7" and Fig. 7 is constructed to griand feed the wire positively so as to produce a uniform motion of thewire, when fed. To effect this object, a grooved bed 82 is arranged inone of the guides 6 below the bar 5, and a feed-roll 83, is journaledabove thesame and provided with a feeding face 64 of suitable length topro oi the re for a single staple.

Lligs. 7 a d 7 show the gearing for driving this roll I om the shaft 4;a stud 85 being with gears 87 which are rotated by t e shaft. l

One of these gears (that upon the stud) is attached to a spiral-gear 89,and a eorre-. spending spiral gear upon the roll-spindle 88 meshes withthe same, thus transmitting the. motion of the shaft to the roll.The,several gear-wheels are proportioned to rotate the roll once foreach rotation of the shaft. The feed-roll 83 rotates continuously duringthe operation of themaehiiie, and the feeding face 84 is slightlyroughened so to engage the wire 53 and feed it positively forward.

The wire-bed 82 is so ported. upon packings 90 and held in place )yscrews 9] so that it can be adjusted toward the feeding surface of theroll 83 to produce the ressure required for feeding the wire T epackings )0 are shown in Fig. 7 as thm layers of suitable material ofwhich a greater or less number may be used to adjust the bed 82 towardthe roll 83. The wire, as shown in Fig. l, is. supplied to the groovedguide 82 from a reel which is indicated merely by a dotted circle 92 in.Fig. 1.

The shank or operating bar 62 forthe tufthook or separator 63 is fittedwithin the guide 6 immediately below the grooved wire-bed. 82; lyingbetween the bed and a I cap 93 held by the screws 91. The bar 62 isactuated by a lever 94 having a roll 95 upon the end engaging a cam 96upon the drivmgshaft 4, as shown in Figs. 3 and 4.

The operation of the apparatus is as follows; Themagazineis'suppl-iedwith bristles which are pressed up toward the cover-plate 66, and thewire is carried through its grooved guide 82 to-the cutter, and abrushblock section l2-attached to the holder by screws 19. The head 7being moved. inward by its cam 10 so as to stand next the frame 2, theanvil is projected as shown in Fig. 1].,

ated to place the wire over the anvil and the loop of a tuft over thetuft-socket 14, as shown in Fig. 5. The block-holder is then raised l ,Vthe lifter 3], bringing the block against the drill-socket l3, and theslide 46 is then depressed by the cam. 76, as shown in Figs. 6 and I],forcing the-drill into the brush-block, as shown in Fig. 6, and bendingthe staple over the anvil as shown in Fig. l 1. The anvil is thenretracted by the cam 78, as shown in Fig. 12, and the tuft-driver 9depressed by the cam' 75 suiliciently to carry the staple and loop 59 ofthe tuft into the tuft-socketM, as shown in Figs. 7 and 12. The cam 76then raises the slide 46, restoring the drill and the fork 57' to theposition shown in Fig. 5, the tuft-driverremaining in the position'shownin Figs. 7 and 12. The drill being thus retracted from the hole 8'formed in the brush-block, the head 7ismoved outwardly by the cam. 10,bri ging the tuft-socket 14 over the hole just formed;

and the tuft-driver is again. actuated. by" the cam 75 to force thestaple and tuft into the hole inrtlle brush-block, as shown in Fig. 7;

When such hole is tufted the tuft-driver is retracted and thebrush-blockis dropped, asshown in Fig. 2, by the operation of t 33 andlifter 31.

e cam The pawl 41 is then actu- --ated by the cam 44 to. shift the slide38 one block may be presents 7 is then moved into the position shown inFigs. 3 and 4, and the anvil is advanced, as

shown in Fig. 11, and thewire fed forwardover the anvil, and the cycleof movements vrenewed as already described, to drill and tuft ;anotherhole.

It will be observed that the cam 75' gives the tuft-driver 9 twoindependent movements, the first being effected upon the retraction ofthe anvil, '(see Fig. 12) to'carry the staple and bristle-tuft into thetuftsocket, while the staple-bending fork 57 is held close to thesocket, as shown in Figs. 7 and 11'. The sides of the tuft-socket aregrooved, as shown in Fig. 16, and the sides of the fork 57 aresimilarlygrooved to receive the arch of the staple. when bending it over theanvil, and to guide the prongs of the staple into the grooves of thetuft-socket. The grooves in the fork 57 are so disposed as' to carry oneprong of the staple into the open loop 59 of the tuft, which lies uponthe top of the tuft-socket, as shown in Fig. 6, and the tuft is thuspositively engaged with the staple to be carried downward thereby whenthe. tuft-driver is actuated the second time, and the staple forced intotbehole in the brushblock, as shown in Fig. 7.

In the machine patented to Rehfuss and Bueh on June 4, 1907, referred toabove, the bristle-tufts after their removal from the magazine werecarried by hooks upon a chain to the proximity of the tuft-socket, and

transferred from the hooks to the tuft-socket by atuft-placei'; but itwill be observed that in the present invention the tuft-socket 14 standsduring the entire forming and driving of the tuft so close to themagazine 58 that a loop of the tuft can be placed beneath the'tuft-driver without wholly drawing the ends of the bristles from theslot .in the magazine. The shifting and handling of the tufts, is thusavoided between the magazine and tuftsocket, (including the actualsetting of the.

tufts in the brush-block) and the derangement of the bristles is thusavoided, as well as any displacement of the bristles, which is naturallycaused by the elasticity of the bristles when transferred from oneagencyto another. By the present construction, theelasticity of thebristles is utilized in a beneficial manner, by retainingthe loose endsof the bristles in the slot '65 of themagazine, as shown-in Figs. 5 and6, to hold the of the tuft in place on the tuft socket unt the prong ofthe-staple has engaged the tuft-loop 59', which 15 positively securesthe tuft from derangement when it is pulled-out of the magazine. Inpractice it is necessary to provide automatic means for sto ping themachine when one row of holes hasIieen tufted in the brush-' block, butsuch means are not fully shown herein, as the form no part of thepresent. invention, an are fully shown in the patent to Rehfuss andBuch, No. 855,810, referred to above. A part of such mechanism is un- 35avoidably shown, consistin of the clutchhub 97 which is fastened rigidlyto the shaft 4 and provided with the usual clutch-bolt shown at 98 inFig. 1. A pulley 101 is shown, fitted to run loose upon the shaft 4, inFigs. 3 and 4, the hub of which pulley is inractice formed with a notch102 to engage t e bolt, and the bolt retracted by automatic mechanism'tostop the driving-shaft when a row of holes is tufted, while the pulleyrevolves continuously. .With such an automatic stop device, the operatorstarts the machine after placing a brush-block or section in the older,and the drilling and tufting ofthe holes is continued until the machineis 100 stop ed, after the required number ofholes has con tufted.
